As indiscriminate attacks by the Turkish state continue, around 20 civilians have taken refugee in the basements of houses in Serekaniye after Turkish troops and allied al-Qaeda gangs attempted to infiltrate some houses on Saturday.

Fighters of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have rescued the 20 civilians who had informed the SDF and called for help after they retook control over the area on the border following operations they have resumed since last night.

The rescued civilians have been taken to safer areas by the SDF fighters.

Speaking to ANF, the rescued Kurdish and Arab civilians thanked the SDF fighters and stressed that they would not leave their lands.
